(Sam (Lightnin') Hopkins)
Tired of so much trouble,
Trouble I've been havin' all my days
Tired of so much trouble,
Oh Lord, had it all my days
Some time I be troubled,
And the woman, gonna take poor Lightnin' to his grave
I told my mama I was in trouble,
Something I didn't want her to know
Told poor mama I was in trouble, yeah, yeah
Boys, I went as fast as I could go
Mama said, "son, you in home now,
I'll pray you don't be trouble no more"
